Chapter 2464

Author: Marina Vittori

The sounds of battle echoed under the streetlights. Shouts of pain mixed with the clash of weapons could be heard. Five figures were locked in a deadly struggle, and blood splattered across the ground.

The fight raged for nearly half an hour until the noise gradually subsided. The five figures lay motionless in pools of blood.

Under the dim glow of the streetlights, three of the black-clad assassins were confirmed dead. One's neck was snapped, another's chest pierced, and the last had bled out

Zephyrin's expression changed sharply when he realized that Albus had grown stronger again. The discovery caught him off guard, yet the situation left him no room to retreat. Having already committed himself to the confrontation, he could only grit his teeth and charge forward.Moments later, the battle erupted again. Facing multiple opponents alone, Albus moved through the clash with relentless precision. Streaks of sword light swept across the field, and his frost sword aura was pushed to its absolute limit. Blanche and the other members of the Frost family fought beside him. They coordinated their attacks and defenses to support his advance while struggling to contain the relentless pressure from the Jornell family.Despite their efforts, the imbalance in numbers gradually became apparent. The Jornell family held the advantage in sheer manpower. Although Zephyrin hadn't fully recovered from his injuries, the foundation of a Core-Forged cultivator still made him a formidable fo
Chapter 2788
While Dustin and the others explored the ruins within the mountain, the region at the foot of Mount Aethermoor had already descended into chaos beneath the golden barrier.Tens of thousands of people had been randomly transported onto platforms scattered around the mountain's base. With no leadership and no order to restrain them, the only law that remained was survival of the fittest. The strong killed the weak, while those unable to resist became servants or even food.On the largest platform at the mountain's base, Evander stood with his hands clasped behind his back, observing the chaotic slaughter unfolding below with cold detachment. Beside him, Elowen idly toyed with a wildflower she had picked somewhere nearby."These insects are so noisy," she said, frowning."They won't be noisy for long," he replied calmly. "This place runs on survival of the fittest. Most of them will be gone soon.""But we're trapped here as well," Elowen complained with mild irritation. "We had plann

Dustin stepped forward and gave a respectful nod toward the skeletal remains. "Sir, I mean no disrespect. I only seek a way to survive here. If I manage to leave, I will remember your kindness."The moment his words fell, the withered bones stirred faintly. A dim wisp of light drifted out of the skeleton, gradually coalescing into the translucent figure of an elderly man with white hair and a long white beard."3,000 years have passed," he began as he studied Dustin, a trace of surprise flickering in his eyes. "At last, someone has come here."Dustin felt a jolt of alarm. He hadn't expected the skeletal remains to conceal something so mysterious.The elderly man stroked his beard and chuckled softly."Don't be nervous. I died long ago. What remains here is only a fragment of my soul, left behind to wait for someone who might one day reach this place. You made it into this hall carrying that ancient token, so our meeting wasn't a coincidence. Tell me, are you willing to accept my

The following morning, sunlight filtered through the treetops at the mouth of the valley and scattered across the ground, driving away the chill that lingered from the night. After a full night of rest, most of the group had recovered from their injuries, and their spiritual energy had largely been restored.Dustin informed the others about the hidden opening he had discovered in the rock wall, after which Grace gathered the key members of the group to discuss their next move."We do not know where this opening leads," she said. "However, the fact that the beasts refuse to approach this section of the cliff suggests that something here frightens them. That means it is either a great opportunity or a great danger."Adam considered the situation before offering his analysis. "Based on the rules governing Mount Aethermoor, the most dangerous places usually hold the greatest opportunities. We are trapped here, and moving upward is our only path forward. If that opening leads higher up

Grace had no time to think it over. She immediately ordered the entire group to fall back toward the rock wall on the left. The group fought desperately, carving a bloody path through the swarm of beasts until they finally managed to retreat beneath the shelter of the cliff face.Just as Dustin had predicted, the bests charged forward but stopped when they came within roughly 100 feet of the rock wall. They stopped one after another, pacing restlessly and letting out agitated roars, yet none of them dared take another step closer. After circling for a short while, the entire pack withdrew like a receding tide, as though something about the rock wall inspired deep instinctive fear.The remaining guards collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath as the tension drained from their bodies. When they counted their numbers, the grim reality became clear. Of the original group of more than 30, fewer than 20 remained, and nearly every one of them was wounded.Scarlet's injuries were the

Spiritfruit Valley lived up to its name. The valley was lush and overgrown, brimming with spiritual energy. Exotic flowers and rare herbs grew in abundance throughout the area. Scattered among them stood several low trees heavy with clusters of crimson fruit that pulsed with dense spiritual energy. They were Vermilion Spiritfruit, a rare treasure capable of quickly restoring depleted spiritual energy and even slightly strengthening one's cultivation.The sight of the spiritfruit lifted everyone's spirits."That's great," someone said. "With these spiritfruit, we can heal our injuries and restore our spiritual energy."However, Dustin remained cautious. His eyes moved slowly across the valley, and he felt something was wrong. The valley was unusually quiet. There were no birds calling, no insects buzzing, and even the wind seemed absent.He lowered his voice and warned them, "Stay alert. There could be danger."The moment the words left his mouth, the ground began to shake violen
